Caliban - I have a lot to say about him but I'll try to shorten it up.
Essentially it's derivative of Onyx Phoenix's custom but with my own interpretation that strays from the comic.
Also he's not quite the hulk he is in the comics but I pictured the Herc body to be a good base before looking at reference art. Still he looks pretty cool to me and I saw a custom with him hulk sized and didn't like it.
No wash on his body. His head has a subtle wash. I chose to go that route because it all looked so clean that it worked for me as is.

nice work man, you need to do a tutorial on how to work that glue.
every time I try I end up burning myself and making a hell of a mess.

I won't be able to do anything like that for awhile. But here are a few things I've learned that might help ya out:

If you are using high temp it's going to want to puddle. So go with a low temp setting or gun.

You can use a cup of cold water to do some rapid glue curing.

The glue is a bit stringy when pulling away from your object so you want to make sure you don't let those strings get on what you're working on. Let them harden then cut or melt them off before moving on.

I'm going to be moving so may not be customizing for awhile so I figured I'd end with a real good one.

My gripes is that the putty was at the end of it's working time when I was using it so his sleeves could have looked better.

Next was the belt I used I had to make some unwanted edits to make it work but it still looks alright.

No XSE symbols but he was drawn lots without 'em as well so it works.

Overall though I think he's pretty awesome, looks great in hand and is a very welcome addition to my shelf.
